That view and comment is not unique to Rama, it's been known in esoteric circles for hundreds of years. It's even referred to in the Bible...

I would be more than happy to have seen any results from yagyas. I also know someone who made a miraculous recovery from a head injury without any help from the gods (no one paid for any at least). Some people do spontaneously and unexpectedly recover from health crises, it's how miracles work - we only see the good results and filter out the rest. Think Lourdes, how many hundreds of thousands of people go there every year? And how many get cured? Probably the same miniscule amount as get anything from yagyas. It's a coincidence if anything happens at all, or the gods are a particularly unpleasant bunch who relish in our suffering. That's as good an argument as you'll get against the concept of a god capable of intervening in our affairs. He's a git. But the eastern religions have a great many get-out clauses for him which we are all familiar with; My karma is too bad or there's too much stress in collective consciousness. I wish I'd thought of it but I just don't have a criminal mind. I'm still chuckling over your description of how the actual text of the yagyas is written. "Please Kalki, please Saraswati, please glorious, glorious "boy group" Brahma, Vishnu & Shiva, take pity on this unworthy (but regular in my TMSP practice) sinner, and help to remove the painful boil that has developed on my backside. I'm far too fat to reach around and treat it myself, and I know that I shouldn't trust medical doctors because Maharishi told me I should avoid them, so if you could do something about it, I'd be very appreciative because then I could practice Yogic Flying again without screaming in pain at every landing." :-)
